Is it stealing to take the bottle of hot sauce from chipotle

[mac5155]

Yeah the tortillas are a ton of calories and they're delicious. That's why you need to get them.

I love spicy food and the tortilla doesn't provide any extra heat, so I don't miss it, to be honest.

burrito bowl with a side of chips = best nachos EVER

So this really hasn't been settled yet? Restaurants don't put out bottles of condiments for you to take home with you.

So if a restaurant sets out a chair and table for me to dine on, are you saying a can't take the chair and table home with me?!?

That seems to be the pro-stealing argument.

this must be the most illegitimate 10 page thread of all time. all time.

[Tico Rick]

Define "illegitimate."

I wanted to say that this comparison is ridiculous, but it actually seems apt.

No, it's a pretty ridiculous comparison.

I think the entire point of this thread is that you CAN'T define a cutoff for when it's "right" and "wrong" to do something. Everyone is different. I think the majority of people will agree that stealing a table and chair is WRONG, but they are OK with taking too many condiment packages/napkins/sporks. It's something as a society that we can't agree on because everyone has a slightly different moral compass. This is why lawmaking is so hard - laws are, ideally, based on right and wrong, but not everyone will always agree on right and wrong.


I saw a good would you rather question the other day:

Think of something extremely immoral (Cheating on your spouse for instance). Would you rather do that thing and have no one find out, or not do it and have everyone think that you did do it?

Assuming you don't enjoy cheating on your spouse, what do you do? Is it selfish or selfless to do it? If you do it, you're protecting her feelings, if you don't do it, you're protecting your conscience.

people who are trying to justify this on technicalities make the world a worse place to live in.

Wow way to turn this thread way too serious

[Troy Loney]

It's wrong to stock your home with napkins and hot sauce packets from taco bell. It's not stealing because they put those out for you take as you please. But the hot sauce bottles are there to use while eating in....one move is cheap jerkoff, the other is stealing.

[Rylan]

I am really hungry cause of this thread. I really want a burrito and may go to taco bell to suffice my need. Thanks for finding a way to make me hate myself.

Are you guys serious? Condiments come with your food, furniture does not. That's a terribly stupid argument.

Seriously? I can only use the hot sauce if I eat my burrito in the Chipotle?

For taking free condiments mmmmhmmmm. I may have taken the bottle itself, which is stealing. The sauce is not.

[Azkar]

What if I pluck an empty bottle out of the garbage?

you are gross?

[pfim]

The title of the bottle would come into question. I mean, has the restaurant released the title by throwing the bottle in the garbage? To whom have they released the title, if anyone? The waste management company? The landfill? A glass recycling facility?

Fascinating.

[Idoit40fans]

I'd say trash in the building is still stealing. Once its outside, it gets murky. Technically the dumpster is being leased, so thats probably still stealing until its emptied into the truck, at that point its probably public. Waste Companies will generally let you follow them to the landfill, dump the truck on the floor, and give you an opportunity to sort through it if you lost something valuable. You could probably get the bottle.

No you didn't ask, if you did you would have posted the results.

i think either this thread or the hot hockey players thread in PR is my new favorite home of nonsensical arguing.

Yes I did. I just like suspense.

The bottles are there for patrons in the store, however, as has been said they will provide a container if you wish to take some. It's not something they will call the cops over but will ask you to return the sauce. Basically it is the most minimal form of stealing you can come up with according to Chipotle employees in Cranberry

This is definitely my favorite current thread.
